About the Author

I have been a writer all my life. I wasn’t very good partly because I’m dyslexic and partly because of my dyslexia I was a terrible reader. But I love to write and therefore wrote often. I wrote many stories. One was published in a magazine. Before the pandemic I started writing my first novel,”Farm Tough”, and self published it. The book got good reviews from readers but wasn’t promoted. Shortly thereafter, I started to write “A Just Revenge” partly about my time at Yuba College, Chico State College, Los Angeles and finally Europe. I found that I write best when I write about something I know, about something I’ve done or about something I feel.

Capitán Cristóbal de Varga’s drive for glory and gold in 1538 Peru leads him and his army of conquistadors into a New World that refuses to be conquered. He is a man torn by life-long obsessions and knows this is his last campaign. What he doesn’t know is that his Incan allies led by the princess Sarpay have their own furtive plans to make sure he never finds the golden city of Vilcabamba. He also doesn’t know that Héctor Valiente, the freed African slave he appointed as his lieutenant, has found a portal that will lead them all into a world that will challenge his deepest beliefs. And what he can’t possibly know is that this world will trap him in a war between two eternal enemies, leading him to question everything he has devoted his life to – his command, his Incan princess, his honor, his God. In the end, he faces the ultimate dilemma: how is it possible to battle your own obsessions . . . to conquer yourself?
